In reply to Zofran used off-label for social anxiety?, posted by jerryTRD on October 18, 2010, at 17:25:06
>I've read online and in my Drug books that Zofran (Ondansetron) is/can be used for social anxiety disorder. I suppose this is because of it's effects on 5-HT3 receptors?
Hi J
I have heard of ondansetron being used for anxiety (experimentally).
Mirtazapine (Remeron) blocks 5-HT3 receptors amongst other things. That may contribute to its effects.
